Student Health Insurance
Ohio State ATI students enrolled for 6 or more credit hours will automatically be enrolled in the university-sponsored Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP). ATI students with other coverage, such as that provided by an employer, parent's employer, or spouse's employer, may waive out of the Student Health Insurance Plan when they register for classes by completing the on-line waiver form. If the insurance waiver form is not completed fully by the 15th day of the quarter, students will be enrolled in SHIP and billed accordingly.
Ohio State ATI students who do not currently have health insurance coverage and want to waive out of the University-sponsored Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP) can stop in the Academic Affairs Office, 219 Halterman Hall, prior to the 15th day of the quarter to sign an insurance waiver request form.
All eligible students (6 or more credit hours) who enroll in the Student Health Insurance Plan in the autumn term are automatically enrolled for annual coverage, which includes the autumn, winter and spring term coverage, as long as they maintain eligibility. All eligible students who initially enroll in the winter term are automatically enrolled for winter and spring terms if they maintain their eligibility; and all eligible students who initially enroll in the spring term, are automatically enrolled for only the spring term. Students are not required to enroll for the summer term (if it is an off-term), but should consider purchasing it in order to maintain continuity of coverage.
If a student wishes to change their coverage status or level of coverage after their initial selection for the academic year, they can only do that if they experience a qualifying event. A qualifying event is defined as an event that could result in a change of coverage status and includes: marriage, divorce, involuntary loss or involuntary gain of coverage from another health plan, dependent reaching the age limit of another health insurance plan, or first time arrival of dependents(s) to the United States from a foreign homeland.
To file a coverage status change form, please see the “Important Forms” section on the OSU Student Health Insurance main page at http://shi.osu.edu/index.asp The coverage status change form must be filed with Koster Insurance (Phone:(800) 254-2461) within 31 days of the qualifying event.
